Electricity

In this section, you’ll understand charge, current, potential difference and resistance, and how circuits behave. You’ll practise using the key equations, analysing series and parallel circuits, and explaining how resistance changes in wires, lamps and thermistors, with exam-style material.

3

Particle Model of Matter

In this section, you’ll learn how the particle model explains states of matter, changes of state and internal energy. You’ll cover density, specific heat capacity, and required practical ideas, then apply the equations in calculations and exam-style questions.

4

Atomic Structure

In this section, you’ll learn atomic structure, isotopes and ions, the history of the atom model, and radioactive decay. You’ll cover nuclear radiation, half-life, contamination and irradiation, and nuclear fission and fusion, with exam-style questions and calculations.

5

Forces

In this section, you’ll learn how forces affect motion, speed, velocity and acceleration, and how to interpret distance-time and velocity-time graphs. You’ll cover resultant forces, momentum, pressure, moments, springs and motion calculations, with exam-style problem solving.

6

Waves

In this section, you’ll learn the properties of transverse and longitudinal waves and how waves transfer energy. You’ll cover reflection, refraction, sound and electromagnetic waves, wave speed calculations, and required practicals, with exam-style questions and graph skills.

7

Magnetism & Electromagnetism

In this section, you’ll learn magnetic fields, electromagnets, the motor effect and the generator effect. You’ll cover transformers, loudspeakers and microphones, and apply key ideas in calculations and exam-style questions.

8

Space Physics

In this section, you’ll learn about the Solar System, orbital motion, satellites, and the life cycle of stars from nebula to supernova. You’ll also study red-shift, the expanding Universe, and the evidence scientists use, with exam-style questions and calculation practice.

9

Practicals

In this section, you’ll learn the AQA GCSE Physics required practicals, including methods, variables, controls, equipment, and safety. You’ll practise analysing results, drawing conclusions, evaluating errors and improvements, and answering exam-style practical questions clearly.
